I am trying to use this program for to access HTTPS web pages on Internet explorer for Windows XP. My client is a 90 year old woman who cannot learn a new operating system or new browser so I am attempting to set up her access to HTTPS sites by using this program. Unfortunately I have not been able to do so. This program sounds like it should be able to do so or am I wrong about this?

I have 'tested' it on XP and have read that people are using it to add some time to XP. We are not your average computer users, however.
I don't know how well it actually works for them.

That said, I dragged all my people off XP after an exploit allowed access to an elderly friend's non-administrator account.

Did you set the browser to use the Proxy for https?
Is the Proxy running?

My client only uses her computer for email. No banking. She also only uses it to view web sites that are in her trusted web site list that I have created for her. She can view no other web sites. So a exploit will not harm her.

I have your program running on my Windows 7 system.
I have tried to use this program on my Windows 7 system and have set the proxy on Internet Explorer as follows:
Address: localhost
Port :8080

But I have not found the information as how to install ProxHTTPSProxy's "CA.crt" to the Client's store of trusted certificate authorities in windows 7.

I want to confirm it works on Windows 7. This way I should be able to configure it the same way in windows XP after I install ProxHTTPSProxy's "CA.crt" to the Client's store of trusted certificate authorities in windows XP.
